Dude, i thought this was a spam bot thread Holy crap. So first place might win $300k and 2nd place $150k? This is amazing. A bit too sad that only 18 players will taste some of that money though. Even 24 would be a nicer way to spread it around. | ||

It's pretty much confirmed. Overall there's going to be $60m handed out. From what I understand, it's ''only'' 30 M$ for the prize money of tournaments (20 tournaments) with the rest being club bonus (20 M$), MVP performance and qualifiers. | ||

These numbers seem to match the ones posted by Waxangel, so the $1,000,000 SC2 prize pool is very likely correct. | ||
